Abstract: | High affinity binding of wheat germ agglutinin to glycophorin is demonstrated to be potently affected by non-specific interaction of the receptor with other protein and oligosaccharide structures present at the membrane surface. It is suggested that this may represent a significant general mechanism of receptor control. |
